The third edition of the acclaimed International Wildlife Encyclopedia has been revised and updated to encompass an ever-growing body of research. Beautifully written and illustrated, far-reaching, and easy to use, this reference set examines the physical features and lifestyles of species from every branch of the animal family. Of special interest is the attention given throughout to taxonomic relations and the systematic naming of species. Fifteen new biome and habitat articles highlight the relationship between environment and species survival.
